To build a '23 C Cab (Paddy wagon) it looks like I will need to fabricate a lot of stuff. My first question is how do I title my vehicle for the year I am trying to replicate? I have checked with Texas DOT and they say if I title an assembled vehicle, it will be titled for the year that I submit (i.e. if submitted today it would be a 2006 vehicle title). That will not work for me since I do not want 2006 safety and emissions rules applied to my vehicle. Or is that not the way it works?
I have heard talk about buying a title for a deceased vehicle and then applying that title to the assembled vehicle.
